The EPIC code is a Lagrangian explicit dynamics code for wave propagation, elastic-plastic flow, material failure, fragmentation, and complex interfaces. It is both a research code and a production code, and it is especially well suited for high-distortion problems caused by intense impulsive loading due to impact and explosive detonation.

An SwRI team is working to improve and update the Elastic-Plastic Impact Computations (EPIC) code. First developed in the 1970s, EPIC offers a cost-effective tool to design and model the interactions of warheads, body armor and armored vehicles.
